This hackathon aims to challenge participants to leverage Fetch.ai agent tech and Solana’s blockchain to build applications that automate complex workflows and interactions in decentralized systems. We have outlined three levels of problem complexity—easy, medium, and complex—each presenting its own challenge.

In this follow-up meeting, the SNET_LatAm Ambassadors team met with the Strategic Alliances team to finalize the operational strategy for introduction WorkShop for the ASI -fetch.ai- solana-hackathon, which will take effect on Tuesday, October 1st.

Their responsibilities will include moderating discussions, serving as intermediaries for participants in Spanish and Portuguese, clarifying questions, and facilitating the exchange of ideas during the virtual Copa America Hackathon.

Following the introduction, the team will participate in the first workshop of the event.

Additionally, the LatAm team will document each intervention and action, establish a methodology for tracking action items, and create a form to collect participant inquiries, which will help streamline a funnel of questions and answers.

The amount to be given to the winners will be established and shared by Rob to the ASAP team in order to incorporate it into the communication and the call to action.

AI Ethics WG

Narrative:

Tasks on Github We started by going through tasks “in progress”;

-We went through feedback from the Admins (GEI reportbacks by Jenn(she will get paid for all the reportbacks she did last quarter), moved to done and ready for payment) Co-chair and mentee by Vani & Colleen, WG async support by LadyTempestt, and the WG internal management by Sucre) on GitHub. All these tasks were moved to “Done” and made ready for payment.

-Event in Nigeria: Duke says the event was excellent while giving us a recap! There is a written report here Report for the "Ubuntu and AI" EventConference with quantitative and qualitative data(e.g. how many people showed up virtually and in person at the event, topics of discussion, and the rest) on how everything went. We also discussed how to sort out payment for speakers where Duke said that he paid one speaker up front so Ubio will get payment, while Esther and Leeloo's payments will go to the volunteers of the event; they both confirmed this. This task was moved to ”Done” and ready for payment this week. Moderation of the AI Ethics forum: There is no agreement on this yet. Will be done later today. Documenting GEI Open Office: We are yet to hear from Jenn concerning these documents.

We went onto tasks in “to-do”;

-Q3 Interviews: Clement has done a few interviews. Colleen will get to do them this week. Ayo said he has started today and Ese said she will get started this week and give an update later on GitHub. They were all reminded to move their individual tasks to “in progress” and put down comments or updates as soon as possible.

-Q4 Budget: The Budget passed but we decided to work on budget fitting, currently it's around 21.68% or so(it should be less after WWG adjusted budget and current AGIX price). We checked a few items that we might need to reduce or cut down due to budget fitting which included interview hours and expenses(Ayo said he would have a few interview expenses), meetings, survey, and educational resources. There are a few other items we might consider cutting if necessary and possible.

Decision Items:

  • Duke will redistribute Leeloo’s payment($150) to volunteers who were at the Ubuntu and AI event in Nigeria.
